If there was one game that raised the measuring stick for who the hero under the mask was?Easily Insomniac’s take on Spider-Man, which just gets the idea of Peter Parker and his wallcrawling alter-ego.

Marvel's Spider-Man will see the wallcrawler finally butt heads with Hammerhead on November 20, in the second DLC episode, Turf Wars.

The Black Cat is back, somebody is about to be robbed and only one amazing web-slinger can stop the ultimate cat burglar whose superpower is an immunity to DC Comics Catwoman intellectual property infringement lawsuits.The City That Never Sleeps DLC isn’t just more of the same according to Insomniac, but also a chance to build on the game by taking fan feedback and learning how to use that constructive criticism to make a better Spider-Man game.

Spider-Man has always had one of the greatest collections of rogues in comic book history, a nefarious library of black hats who always emerge to menace Spider-Man again and again and again. Naturally, we want to see more of them in the inevitable Spider-Man sequel. Whether they’re the biggest of the bads or goofy distractions, here’s a look at ten Spider-Man villains we want to see in the future.

Creating that new suit was something that Insomniac had to do if they wanted to stand apart from all the other Spider-Man games that had come before them. How do you even build a costume that carries legacy, renewal and an iconic sense of self?

Marvel’s Spider-Man is a brave reimagining of the wallcrawler that also serves as a reminder of just how important the icon is, as a symbol of inspiration and rising up to find the hero inside. If it weren’t for Sony, we’d probably have never seen this incarnation realised.

Spinning webs, swinging between Skyscrapers and pouncing on mercenaries who are designed to never ever look upwards in the warehouse that they’re patrolling…Man, Marvel’s Spider-Man is a terrific game to play. It’s also a fantastic game to watch, as developer Insomniac haven’t just crafted the definitive Spider-Man simulator, they’ve stuffed it with a story that knows exactly when to make you laugh and when to reach for a box of tissues to wipe the tears from your face.

Sometimes a grand romantic gesture can be pulled off with months of planning and anticipation. Other times you're stuck with an unwanted proposal in one of the year's biggest videogames.
